Machinima combines filmmaking, animation and game development in a real-time 3D virtual video game environment like Second Life, The Sims and World of Warcraft.
The exhibition features an historical timeline of machinima works with over 60 examples on display; from the first clunky DIY video game films created using games like Quake and Doom in the mid-90s, to contemporary film and artworks by internationally acclaimed artists like Friedrich Kirschner.
Fans can also get reacquainted with classic video games in the Gamers' Lounge.
Join us for the opening on Tuesday 20 July, 6.00pm for 6.30pm To be opened by Friedrich Kirschner.
Friedrich Kirschner is a filmmaker, visual artist and software developer. He re-purposes computer games and realtime animation technology to create animated narratives and interactive performances.
